  1. Cheat sheet

    A cheat sheet or crib sheet is a concise set of notes used for quick reference. «Cheat sheet» may also be rendered «cheatsheet».
    Cheat sheets are so named because they may be used by students without the instructor’s knowledge to cheat on a test. However, at higher levels of education where rote memorization is not as important as in basic education, students may be permitted to consult their own notes during the exam. The act of preparing a so-called cheat sheet is also an educational exercise, thus students are sometimes only allowed to use cheat sheets they have written themselves. In such usage, a cheat sheet is a physical piece of paper, often filled with equations and/or facts in compressed writing. Modern students often print cheat sheets in extremely small font, fitting an entire page of notes in the palm of their hands during the exam.
    The term can also apply to the fully worked solution for exams or work sheets normally handed out to university staff to ease marking.

For information about cheatsheet in Wikipedia, see Help:Cheatsheet.

A cheat sheet (also cheatsheet) or crib sheet is a concise set of notes used for quick reference. Cheat sheets were historically used by students without an instructor or teacher’s knowledge to cheat on a test or exam.[1] In the context of higher education or vocational training, where rote memorization is not as important, students may be permitted (or even encouraged) to develop and consult their cheat sheets during exams. The act of preparing such reference notes can be an educational exercise in itself, in which case students may be restricted to using only those reference notes they have developed themselves.[2] Some universities publish guidelines for the creation of cheat sheets.[3]

A cheat sheet that is used contrary to the rules of an exam may need to be small enough to conceal in the palm of the hand

As reference cardsEdit

In more general usage, a crib sheet is any short (one- or two-page) reference to terms, commands, or symbols where the user is expected to understand the use of such terms but not necessarily to have memorized all of them. Many computer applications, for example, have crib sheets included in their documentation, which list keystrokes or menu commands needed to achieve specific tasks to save the user the effort of digging through an entire manual to find the keystroke needed to, for example, move between two windows. An example of such a crib sheet is one for the GIMP photo editing software.[4]
